Chapter 1204:

But Jayden hesitated. “I don’t mean to disrespect you.”

Elyse’s irritation peaked. “Stop pretending to be a gentleman. If you really respected me, you’d grant my wishes. I feel like I’m about to collapse.”

Jayden kept up his pretense. “Fine, then,” he said with a hint of amusement. “If that’s what you want, I’ll oblige.”

Suddenly, in a blur of movement, Elyse was on her stomach, her hips raised toward Jayden. Surprised, her eyes widened. “What are you doing? Ah!”

The euphoric beat of Jayden’s thrusts cut off her cry. With his arms clamped around her waist and his body pressed tightly against her back, Jayden whispered a seductive message in her ear. “I think you will find this much more pleasurable, considering how insatiable you are.”

This position, Elyse found, allowed her to move in deeper, more pleasurable ways, satisfying a need inside her. Her inhibitions had evaporated under the influence of the substance.

Jayden was pleased with her newfound confidence. He knew that if she wanted, they could spend the whole night together, and he would gladly take double the amount to make her every wish come true. Lost in thought about what he was going to do the following evening, Jayden also became open. His voice trailed off as he hugged Elyse tightly. “I want to cherish you forever, keep you safe, and love and please you every single day.”

Elyse’s thoughts were confused by the constant pressure on her core. Although she could hear Jayden’s voice, she didn’t fully understand what he was saying.

Noticing that Elyse’s concentration was slipping, Jayden grabbed her and pushed wildly. Amidst her moans, he expressed his greatest desire. “I long to come back alive, and every night we’d snuggle up and fall asleep in each other’s arms.”

Amanda was now under the influence of an aphrodisiac. Worried that Jayden might not inhale it, she had applied an excessive amount to herself in her eagerness. However, she hadn’t anticipated his heightened sensitivity to such substances. Had it been colorless and odorless, it might have gone unnoticed. Unfortunately, the aphrodisiac she had found had a potent aroma that anyone nearby could easily detect. As Jayden approached, he immediately sensed something unusual and promptly distanced himself. This meant that while Jayden barely inhaled any of it, Amanda had absorbed far more than she intended. Additionally, the physical exertion of running intensified her body heat, accelerating the drug’s effects, causing her to inhale even more of it. . . .
